On request or instant confirmation: selling rooms you can't guarantee

Sell a room instantly when you can guarantee it. Sell it on request when you can't: the agent books, the room is held, nothing is charged, and you answer by a deadline. When on request beats closing a date, what the agent sees, and why your public website should take an enquiry instead.
